Since I decided to buy a copy of Gadget X, I was wondering if the printing templates functionality would be accessible through Gadget X


Print Templates are described here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/IETechCol/dnwebgen/beyondprintpreview.asp

The way to go that I imagine:

1. Write a print template
2. Using Gadget X instantiate a WebBrowser Control, and telling it of the print template upon instantiation


The above article seems to indicate that you need C++ for using this print template functionality, but if the correct parameters can be passed to the WebBrowser control, I imagine that this would be possible ?

Anyone with thoughts on this ?

Henrik,
I looked at this page and yes this is possible with GadgetX. I have an demo in the GadgetX package called surfxbrowser-gadgetx.dsc that shows how to tell the Browser control to print and too do a print preview. You would only need to pass the command called Ole Command the path to the template you would like to use.

That looks easy enough.

Thank you for your help !
